hi and welcome to MH.

yes you are right you will need to take more and more, it can spiral out of control in a very short time. good for you realising that you need help. thanks you reaching out.

how long have you been taking them? does your mom you take them from her?
you will be uncomfortable for about 7 days. you will need to drink alot of fluids. let us know what symptoms you are having.

have you stopped taking them?

we will encourage you and support you through this.
